What is Honey Oil?

You may know honey oil by the names hash oil and cannabis oil, which is funny because it doesn’t really look like an oil.

In fact, its appearance actually looks more like, well, honey. This is due to its thick, extremely sticky and almost syrupy texture. It’s made through a method called solvent extraction, which sounds a lot more complicated than it really is.

The process is actually quite simple.

The marijuana plant is “stripped” of its trichomes with some kind of solvent –  isopropyl alcohol and then carefully purged.  No added cutting agents or fillers are added.

The benefit to this method is a much higher potency than smoking can provide. Both in terms of THC levels, but also in flavour and aroma, depending on how its used.

Speaking of the ways its used – let’s get into it…

How can you use Honey Oil?

Honey oil is an incredibly versatile concentrate. The syrup quality it has means it can be ingested in immeasurable ways, with more methods constantly coming to light. To name a few ways honey oil can be used: it can be put into edibles; dabbed with a dab rig; added to concentrate cartridges or syringes; and many more.

If you decide to make your own honey oil, then refilling your own cartridges can be a great help to your bank account.

Honey oil can also be used to make shatter and wax, as they’re really just cooled forms of honey oil. These themselves can then be dabbed with a dab rig.

So, there’s a lot of options out there.

Strain

A pure indica 100% , Blueberry Kush is a favourite offspring of two legends, Blueberry and OG Kush. It packs massive THC contents, topping 24% in at least one publicly available test. This strain contains much lower amounts of CBD, however, much less than 1%. That’s too low to recommend Blueberry Kush as treatment for seizures and other conditions that respond to CBD. But it’s a good strain for treating anxiety, low mood, ADHD, migraine headaches, mood disorders, chronic pain, and nausea. The indica effects are deeply relaxing, happy, euphoric, and sleepy. That makes Blueberry Kush a great late-night strain and an effective way to treat insomnia. This strain has an earthy flavour and aroma with notes of berries and herbs. Dry mouth and dry eyes are widely reported as side effects, while dizziness, paranoia, and headaches are less likely. Popular up and down the West Coast, from Southern California to British Columbia, Blueberry Kush can also be found on the medical marijuana market in Arizona. It’s also a frequent find on the black market in many parts of the United States.
